7 Social Engineering A telecom company outsources the laying of new optical fibers for a bank to a maintenance team who do not understand the security issues. The naked optical fiber is accessible..and the detailed layout of the fiber network & the name of the bank is clearly visible for future hacking attempts 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 7 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY 7

12 Classical and Quantum Physics Classical physics Describes the macroscopic world Quantum physics Description of the microscopic world Deterministic Intuitive Probabilistic Central role of the observer Not very intuitive Quantum physics Novel information processing possibilities Quantum Information Theory (QIT) 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 12 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY

13 The Threat: Quantum Computing Quantum Computing Basics Uses quantum properties, not binary code (qubits vs. bits) Acts as a massively parallel computer Will render today s public key encryption unsafe 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 13 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY

14 Quantum Computing and Cryptography Shor s Algorithm Grover s Algorithm Peter Shor, 1994 Lov Grover, 1996 Quantum algorithm for integer factorization Quantum algorithm to perform search in an unsorted database O((log N) 3 ) vs O(e 1.9 (log N)1/3 (log log N)2/3 ) O(n ½ ) vs O(n) Key halfed for symmetric cryptography AES bits security AES bits security Can break RSA, Elliptic Curve & Diffie Hellman 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 14 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY

15 Quantum Computing in Research America is building a quantum computer for cryptanalysis quantum-computer-that-could-crack-most-types-of-encryption/2014/01/02/8fff297e e3-8def-a df2_story.html According to Snowden this is a major NSA initiative called Penetrating Hard Targets China Prepares for Quantum Age Source: The importance of building a quantum computer is such that the Chinese government funded 90 quantum related projects last year through the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Lazaridis (RIM cofounder) has invested $250 million+ into quantum computing at Waterloo Quantum Valley Dwave raised funds from Jeff Bezos (Amazon), InQTel (NSA investment arm) and sells to Lockheed Martin, NASA 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 15 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY

16 When do we need to start worrying? «Wait and see» approach is too risky Time Vulnerability Information Exchange Information lifetime (based on legal, business or strategic constraints) Time for migration (from a few months to several years) Next generation of cryptographic infrastructure: Must have quantum-safe alternatives Should have algorithmic agility built in 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 16 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY 16

17 Leading Signs That It s Time To Adopt QKD Quantum computers have more than 1000 qubits OR Quantum computers have demonstrated that Shor s algorithm to factor numbers works D-Wave sold a 128-bit computer in 2011; announced a 512-bit computer Lazaridis (RIM cofounder) has invested $250MM+ into quantum computing at Waterloo Quantum Valley RSA-1024 has been broken OR RSA-768 was cracked in December, 2009 using 5TB of data and 1500 CPU-years of a 2.2GHz Opteron NIST recommendation stop using RSA-1024 before 12/31/2013 U of Mich reported breaking RSA-1024 using a side channel attack Large organized networks of computers can be formed to solve complex, timeconsuming problems OR Network bots, SETI-at-home Bitcoin Millions-to-billions of smart phones around the world with quad-core ARM processors all linked over a common network (telecom systems) You transmit data over the network that needs to be protected for more than five years 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 17 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY

18 The Solution: Quantum-Safe Cryptographic Infrastructure «Post-quantum» cryptography Classical codes deployable without quantum technologies Believed/hoped to be secure against quantum computer attacks of the future + Quantum Key Distribution Quantum codes requiring some quantum technologies currently available Typically no computational assumptions and thus known to be secure against quantum attacks Both sets of cryptographic tools can work together to form a quantum-safe cryptographic infrastructure 2014 ID Quantique SA, Switzerland page 18 ID Quantique PROPRIETARY
